It's Tuesday, Where Are You?

It's Tuesday . . . Where are you? is a weekly meme sponsored by Raidergirl3 from An Adventure In Reading. It's one of my favorites because we get to tell about the places we are visiting in our reading. Be sure to visit Raidergirl3's blog and find out all the places people are visiting this week.

Today I am in the fantasy world created by Angie Sage and inhabited by Septimus Heap. We, Septimus and some of his friends and I, are stranded on a little island when the dragon we were flying was zapped by a bolt of lightning and we had to make an emergency landing. We know it was right after seeing the lighthouse with a cat eyes and cat ears at the top. We also know there is a syren living in a tower on the island who has taken possession of a friend we knew a long time ago. We are suspecting there is a devious plot to hurt the castle. What we don't know is that there is a ghost ship just offshore that is planning to hijack Jenna's father's ship, which we don't yet realize is heading toward the island.

This is a series I haven't read at all, or even heard much of. My kids liked Harry Potter, but arent' into fantasy that much. It makes it a bit hard these days to find books they like - there are so many fantasy series around.
